Effect of High-Pressure Processing Operating Parameters on Microbial Inactivation and Bioactive Protein Preservation in Bovine Milk: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT In the U.S., bovine milk is processed using thermal pasteurization to ensure microbial safety. However, this process alters the structure of heat‐sensitive bioactive proteins associated with the functional benefits of raw milk, including antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant proteins.

Diagnostic accuracy of a Brix refractometer to estimate porcine colostrum quality. [PDF]
Abstract Background The objective of this study was to investigate the validity of the Brix refractometer to accurately estimate immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrations in porcine colostrum, using radial immunodiffusion (RID) as a reference standard. Methods Eighty‐seven composite colostrum samples were collected from sows on a single pig farm between ...

Developing tools for learning immunology using diffusion-based salt precipitation assays: A low-cost alternative for college laboratories. [PDF]
Abstract The Ouchterlony double immunodiffusion technique is used as a teaching tool for studying immune responses and exemplifying differences in antigen–antibody reactions. Although commonplace in undergraduate labs, standardized commercial kits limit learning experiences because they have fixed modalities of use, a low shelf‐life, and impose ...

Determination of Fibrinogen Ratio Cutoff Limits Using Indirect Reference Interval Methodology. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Discordant fibrinogen antigen to activity ratios are utilized by clinicians as evidence of dysfibrinogenemia. Abnormal ratio cutoffs implemented by clinical laboratories are typically determined by validation studies that include limited numbers of samples.

Actin, α-actinin, and tropomyosin interaction in the structural organization of actin filaments in nonmuscle cells [PDF]
During the spreading of a population of rat embryo cells, approximately 40% of the cells develop a strikingly regular network which precedes the formation of the straight actin filament bundles seen in the fully spread out cells.

The production and development of H7 Influenza virus pseudotypes for the study of humoral responses against avian viruses [PDF]
In recent years, high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus, H5N1, low pathogenicity avian influenza (LPAI) virus, H9N2, and both HPAI and LPAI H7 viruses have proved devastating for the affected economies reliant on poultry industry, and have posed
